MOTION MANAGER, CONTROL DEVICE OF BRAKE DEVICE, AND CONTROL METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240101084 titled 'MOTION MANAGER, CONTROL DEVICE OF BRAKE DEVICE, AND CONTROL METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of the patent application describes a motion manager mounted on a vehicle that can receive a motion request for additional braking force when the vehicle is stopped, in anticipation of a potential collision with another object. The processor then generates an instruction value to increase the braking force of the brake device in response to the motion request.

  • Motion manager on vehicle with processor
  • Receives motion request for additional braking force when stopped
  • Generates instruction value to increase braking force in response to request

Potential Applications

The technology could be applied in autonomous vehicles, collision avoidance systems, and emergency braking systems.

Problems Solved

This technology helps prevent collisions by providing additional braking force when needed, improving safety on the road.

Benefits

The system enhances the vehicle's ability to react to potential collisions, reducing the risk of accidents and injuries.

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications include automotive manufacturers, technology companies developing autonomous vehicles, and companies specializing in safety systems for vehicles.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be existing collision avoidance systems that provide warnings or assist with braking but may not automatically increase braking force in anticipation of a collision.

Unanswered Questions

How does the system differentiate between potential collisions and false alarms?

The abstract does not specify how the system determines the validity of the motion request for additional braking force.

What is the impact of increased braking force on vehicle wear and tear?

The abstract does not address the potential consequences of generating a greater braking force on the vehicle's mechanical components.


Original Abstract Submitted

a motion manager mounted on a vehicle includes a processor. the processor receives, from an application that has determined that another object will collide with the vehicle, a motion request indicating that an additional braking force is needed, when the vehicle is stopped. the processor generates an instruction value for causing a brake device to generate a greater braking force than before the motion request is received, when the motion request indicating that the additional braking force is needed is received.
